Heaven Fortune Auction

"Expert?" Liang chuckled, his voice filled with a hint of humor, "I wouldn't claim to be one." His eyes sparkled mischievously, betraying a confidence that contradicted his humble words.

Mister Yuan's mouth twitched, a subtle sign of amusement or annoyance, perhaps both. "I assume both of you are attending the auction, right?" he asked, his voice tinged with curiosity.

"Auction?" A hint of surprise flashed through Liang momentarily, his eyebrows arching in intrigue. Just as he was about to respond, Kai interjected with a hearty laugh, his eyes gleaming brightly with mischief, "Ah, yes! Alchemists are indeed clever people. We have traveled a long distance to attend it."

Mister Yuan, though sensing something amiss in Kai's words, nodded in acknowledgement, his expression veiled with suspicion.

"Let's enter then, the auction is about to begin," Yun Wei suggested, her voice calm yet laced with anticipation as she confidently took a step forward.
